Cosmetic treatment for Vitiligo?

by Salman, Sep 17, 2000 12:00AM
My niece has limited amount of skin depigmentation on her face.
I want to know if there are any commercially available preparations or cosmetics that can be used for cover up makeup to hide the area of pigment loss on the face.IF yes how can we
purchase them and from where?

Salman:

Almost any makeup may help, but the heavier-duty brands for covering hard-to-camouflage areas include Covermark, Dermablend, and Cinema Secrets, to name three.  They can be purchased at cosmetic counters.

Best.
